    Is this a fully proposed building? Or is this just a concept of what *could* be built.

    Definitely. Really loving the way UD is turning out. If only the EV could manage this.

    Calgary | Green Line LRT | ?m | ?s | Calgary Transit

    Even getting a section of the tunnel going, do Shepard to Centre Street South Station, then the riders are significantly closer to the employment centres of the core. I dunno. They should have phased it though and already be well underway on the 4 Street to Shepard section by now. It likely...

    Statscan numbers

    I find it consistently shocking how sluggish the Ottawa market seems to be, given that their metro is only a couple hundred thousand smaller than ours. Are they just not experiencing the population explosion that the rest of the federation is? We’re less than 900 housing starts behind Toronto...

    Almost weird to see such a gigantic building in UD. The precedent was set with Alt of course, but this feels way bigger. I believe this is the tallest building in the whole University area now right? Other than maybe the University City twins?

    Office Space Conversion

    Oh damn, well that was quick, and it looks excellent. Best one yet by leaps and bounds.

    That’s awesome. 40 storeys right next to 17th is wild.

    General Construction Updates

    It really is absolutely mental how long the Eau Clair Plaza is taking. They don’t even have paving stones in? I could almost understand if they were putting in a splash pad mixed with a Freon system for a winter skating rink throughout the majority. But that’s not happening.

    Urban Multi-Family Construction Count Tracker

    If we got Lincoln, Imperia, and Gallery all under construction simultaneously, that would be (arguably) the 3 nicest condo towers in the prairies under construction simultaneously, within 3 blocks of each other. Major addition of diversity of the look of buildings in the skyline from the south...

    In this case, I don’t really get the disdain of the new design. Pretty innocuous and if it turns out half decent it will at least be interesting. I’d say the best conversion render we’ve seen other than how Cube turned out.

    Weather and Gardening Discussion

    Some half decent shots of lightning from Sunday’s storm. Also, first prolonged stretch of 30+ coming starting Monday, possibly even Sunday. Duration 6 to 10 days depending on how it goes.

    More action on the site. They’ve expanded the construction fencing into the St Mary’s High School sport field (they took out about up to the pitchers mound on the baseball Diamond). Maybe it’s going ahead 🤷🏻‍♂️

    With Arris and this together that’s quite a few people added to the area in a short time. I’ve got a feeling we’ll see this go ahead sooner than later. Just a hunch though…

    Could not agree. I’ve thought that about individual projects but never connected the dots to see the pattern. Even Contemporary Calgary barely tells what it is. Studio Bell - National Music Centre Werklund Centre - Werklund Performing Arts Centre J.R. Shaw Centre for Arts and Culture - Shaw...

    The master planners behind U/D or West District should be behind Eau Claire and Westbrook. Please not CMLC.
